Egypt antiquities chief becomes minister
CAIRO — Egypt's chief archaeologist Zahi Hawass, the guardian of some of the world's most important treasures, was on Wednesday named minister of antiquities, the official MENA news agency reported.
Hawass had served as head of the Supreme Council of Antiquities and later became minister of state under ousted president Hosni Mubarak.
Nationwide protests that erupted on January 25 overthrew Mubarak and saw power handed over to a military council.
Hawass's appointment is likely to anger pro-democracy activists who have been calling for the cabinet to purged of all old regime elements.

Good riddance as far as I am concerned, this man has been a tyrant over the years and I am sure he has been hiding a lot of the true history of Egypt.

Hawass seems to "spit-fire" at any mention of anything beyond the shallow "Egyptology" lines he preached. The science though, is a mess. One may wonder he has been a gate-keeper of sorts? Why, is another thing... Possibly a Hall of Records, would or will, have a very massive affect on so many things... from science to history to "religions" etc...

here's an article... There's many sources for trying to corner the market on what I'm talking about... lol
The Egyptologist, The Sphinx And The Cover-Up
In the interview at the time of Qutb's arrest, Hawass also told the BBC that he takes "immediate action against any employee with the slightest shadow of suspicion hanging over them, even if the person turns out to be innocent".13 Guilty until proven innocent, it seems, is the modus operandi within the SCA. No wonder there are reports that Hawass is unpopular within Egypt.

I was wanting to go to Egypt eventually in my life time, but I wouldn't go now. After hearing of Anderson Cooper getting punched in the face multiple times, and the lovely Brittish news caster being raped and assualted on.

It's not like he ever made any predictions that came true.
If I fall asleep and mutter that the Hall of Records is up my a$$, will I wake up to a bunch of idiots trying to perform a colonoscopy on me?

I won't bother answering to the fallacies in your reasoning here... ESPecially the appeal to ridicule.

Harte, I usually don't respond to people using the OLD scoffing and ridicule trick, as you have blatantly done. In the future, if you wish to have a conversation with me, NEVER debase the conversation with such tactics. Don't EVEN try claiming it humor on your part. It is outright a non-valid argument on your side.

Before you judge Cayce a 'fraud,' you should do some homework.
He was very accurate on a considerable enough amount of topics to be visited by some very rational, and important, men. (Men whom used the answers he gave in sleep to become very rich men.)
